Spring Spiritual Practice

The energy of Spring, as we see in our gardens, brings the opportunity for new growth, fresh starts and new beginnings.

The trees have come back to life, blossoms are blooming, the grass is growing, sprouts are ‘taking off’, growth is everywhere! Beautiful smells, sprite-liness and baby animals…

During Spring, everywhere in nature, we see and feel and hear the energy, the pulse, the sound of new growth.

And so we have the opportunity to consciously align with this energy and ‘use’ it to fuel whatever new beginnings we are creating in our lives.

How to thicken an endometrium

In Chinese medicine the uterus is known as the baby palace, and a healthy uterine lining is essential for growing a healthy baby. A lining that is too thin will make it more difficult for an embryo to implant or obtain proper nourishment throughout the pregnancy. A healthy lining is evenly distributed throughout the uterus, enjoys good blood flow, and at mid-cycle it measures 8-12 mm thick. Read on for some ways to improve your uterine lining.

How to take your basal body temperature (BBT)

BBT charting is an incredibly simple and useful tool in helping you (and us!) gain greater insight into the timing and quality of your menstrual cycle. The shifting of your hormones throughout your cycle is reflected in small changes in your body temperature, and BBT charting helps us to really see what is going on and what could be contributing to your health issues. For a smooth and healthy period, your body needs to be producing the right levels of the right hormones at the right times – not always an easy task in our chemical-filled, stressed out lives.

Let's talk about sperm

Do you really need to improve your sperm health? The answer is probably! Since 1989, there has been a 30% decrease in sperm count in the general male population and about one in twenty men has a fertility issue, even if they live a seemingly healthy lifestyle. Male fertility is a common reason people go to IVF with research showing that 40% of infertility cases are due to poor sperm quality. Even if your results came back in the okay range you can still improve your sperm-health even further, giving you the best chance of conceiving.
